Nice pics. Good to see another satisfied customer. I was considering the 25 as well, probably would have gone that route but liked the Woods FEL better on the 30(the 25 had kl130). The HPs weren't a consideration for me, but the Woods 1012 w/QA was for me.

Is that the Woods 80x BH? That's a sweet looking unit. These pics remind me that I've got to get or make a grill guard as well.

The pictures my wife took prompted the immediate purchase of the Kioti grill guard which I've since modified with the help of a friend who welds. You can see the modified grill guard in a couple of the pictures posted here as well as my "special assistant." I've found the grill guard modification especially helpful in tending the very large piles of branches, logs and stumps that I'm burning. I can push into the pile and bank it up without worrying about something poking through the rather large opening of the factory grill guard. I'm going to mount two more forward facing lights on the ROPs so I wasn't worried too much about losing some from my headlights. If I'm using the loader the headlights aren't much help anyhow.

Nice to see your Special assistant wearing PPE. Nice mod on the guard too. ROPS lighting is on my list of winter projects/upgrades. You are right about the headlights when using FEL. Had to move a few round bales(oversized) in the dark had to turn off the headlights and hold a flashlight, PITA.

I think two forward facing 55 watt lights on the ROPs will solve the headlight problem when using the loader. I've already installed two rear facing. I too have gone the flashlight route more than once and you're right, PITA.
